Definitions
- the invention relates generally to construction apparatus.
- the invention relates to methods and apparatus for assisting in elevating and retaining in place relatively large units of sheet material during overhead construction.
- U.S. Patent No. 4,576,354 to Blessing is directed to a panel overhead support apparatus including a column having a bearing plate and a compression spring.
- the support column is adjusted to a length greater than the floor-to-ceiling height, the spring is compressed, and the support column is placed under the panel.
- the compression spring is then allowed to expand, thus supporting the panel in place.
- U.S. Patent No. 4,733,844 to Molloy describes a sheet rock support arrangement in which a clutch is used to manually adjust a compression spring to support an overhead panel.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,129,774 to Batseiro shows a sheet rock lifter using a compressible bar spring to support an overhead panel.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,322,403 to Herde is directed to a panel support lift including telescoping tubular members damped by an air piston.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,636,383 to Cwiakala discloses a head-mounted apparatus for supporting and raising ceiling materials.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,732,527 to Schneider is directed to a pivoting panel lift apparatus that is secured to the ceiling support structure. A ceiling panel is placed on a downwardly-angled ramp, then a gas cylinder causes the ramp to lift the panel into a substantially horizontal orientation adjacent the ceiling joists.
- a sheet material lifting and retaining apparatus including a shaft member having a longitudinal axis.
- a gas cylinder assembly is secured to the shaft member, the gas cylinder assembly having an axis of operation that is generally coaxial with the longitudinal axis of the shaft member.
- a sheet material contact member is secured to the gas cylinder assembly.
- the shaft member can include a length adjustment mechanism, which may be provided as a telescoping tube arrangement having a plurality of telescoping aluminum tubes.
- the gas cylinder assembly can include a self-contained gas cylinder.
- An end fitting can be secured to a first end of the gas cylinder, with a shaft attachment member secured to a second, opposite end of the gas cylinder.
- An actuator can be provided to selectively control actuation of the gas cylinder.
- the actuator of the gas cylinder assembly can include a rod portion extending generally parallel to the shaft member.
- the shaft member can include an attachment bracket adapted to be secured to the shaft attachment member of gas cylinder assembly.
- the end fitting can be adapted to be secured to the sheet material contact member, which may be provided as a generally planar nylon block.
- a floor contact member which may include a cushion contact surface, can secured to an end of the shaft member opposite the gas cylinder assembly.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic elevational view of a sheet material lifting and retaining apparatus in accordance with the principles of the present invention.
- FIG. 2 schematically illustrates a detailed view, partially broken away, of a sheet material lifting and retaining apparatus as shown in FIG. 1.
- FIG. 1 A sheet material lifting and retaining apparatus 10 is illustrated in FIG. 1.
- the apparatus 10 includes a shaft member 12 having a longitudinal axis A.
- a gas cylinder assembly 14 is secured to the shaft member.
- the gas cylinder assembly 14 has an axis of operation (arrow O in FIG. 2) that is generally coaxial with the longitudinal axis A of the shaft member 12.
- a sheet material contact member 16 is secured to the gas cylinder assembly 14.
- the sheet material contact member 16 can be fabricated from any suitable material, depending on the nature of the sheet material to be lifted and retained. In applications involving sheet rock, it has been found that configuring the sheet material contact member 16 as a generally planar nylon block is particularly advantageous.
- the shaft member 12 includes a suitable length adjustment mechanism 18.
- the mechanism 18 may, for example, be provided as a telescoping tube arrangement having a plurality of telescoping 1.5" diameter aluminum tubes connected in a conventional spring-pin and aperture arrangement as illustrated.
- the gas cylinder assembly 14 includes a self-contained gas cylinder 24.
- a self-contained gas cylinder 24 any suitable gas cylinder can be provided, one example of which is model TYP 17-04-19 manufactured by SUSPA, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan.
- An actuator 26 can be provided to selectively control actuation of the gas cylinder 24.
- the actuator 26 includes a rod portion 28 extending generally parallel to the shaft member 12.
- An end fitting 30 can be secured to a first end of the gas cylinder 24.
- the end fitting is also a stock item manufactured by SUSPA, Inc.
- a shaft attachment member 32 is secured to a second, opposite end of the gas cylinder 24.
- the shaft member 12 includes an attachment bracket 34 adapted to be secured to the shaft attachment member 32.
- a unit of sheet material is placed in proximity to an intended overhead placement location.
- the sheet material lifting and retaining apparatus 10 with the shaft member 12 adjusted to a length slightly less than the floor to ceiling height, is then positioned beneath and in contact with the unit of sheet material.
- the gas cylinder assembly 14 is then actuated to extend outwardly along the direction of arrow O to lift the unit of sheet material into the intended overhead placement location.
- the sheet material lifting and retaining apparatus 10 can then be allowed to remain in place to retain the unit of sheet material in the intended overhead placement location while workers fasten the panel into place.
